Do you consider cybersex cheating?

[Blonde Heat]

I'll wait to answer this one thank you very much.

If your single and are not in any commitment then no it is not cheating. But if your in a relationship and you need to turn to another source to get your rocks off then I say you are not as much into the relationship as you should be. I guess that is what makes some women upset when thier hubbies or boyfriends go out to the clubs to see what actions they can get. I AM happy in the relationship I am in now and I have no need to go to a place in rela life or on the internet to see or get sex. All I would want is a nice conversation with a real person and not some idiot (male or female) pretending to be someone or something they are not. This might be a reason I have not been on a chat for a long time. I was on briefly the other day I might get back on someday.

I used to be on IRC a long time ago and finally found a program that would stop men from messaging me. I talk only in a channel, never privately.
If you are married our in a relationship, then I would say, yes, cybersex is cheating.
I have been on forums and talked to people whose marriages ended because of addiction to cybersex and meeting those they have cybersex to have real sex. It's pretty appalling. The Net really put cheating on a new level in my eyes.
I'm really glad I walked on to the Net with my eyes open. I have never met anyone on the net except for a group meeting one time in West Palm Beach. I took my husband with me, I did not have fun and I won't go on another one.

I dunno...what'd you have in mind?

[Blonde Heat]

It was just a question on the cards i bought. But since you asked.

No really, I can't see how it would be considered cheating if the P word is not involved.

I've talked to several peopl who have had problems because of their cybersex. I was point blank in my questions and they said it's more of an emotional affair, something they got caught up in and couldn't stop. One lost his marriage over it.

Yes it is cheating, just like doing a drive by over the phone is murder.

Sex is when two people come into intimate physical contact, not when they talk dirty on the phone.

I just looked some stuff up on it, Mike. Everyone has a different view. But, the one that made most sense to me explained that it's a more powerful emotional connection then some people think. Many people consider it an "emotional affair" and many consider that just as bad as a physical affair. What I'm saying is that cybersex is not "harmless". Many people get addicted to it. Sometimes, it goes into reality. That makes it dangerous.

[Mike Tx]

Mitzi, just because some people get attached to wanking off on the phone, to me does not make it real. I would be more inclined to think those people need help, and possibly the media, or some doctors group would be trying to give this more credibility then it deserves, in the hope of making it a new 'problem disorder' that they can then treat as an illness.

But hey, what do I know? Call and we'll talk!

[BrickCop]

I'm with Mike on this one. Cheating? What a laugh!

How many people come home and catch their spouse in bed with the PC monitor?

The 'addiction' is just a symptom that something's wrong in the relationship. Maybe the spouse is bored of the same routine. Maybe the wife won't swing from the chandolier anymore or she turned into a Museum (look but don't touch).

I think cybersex is kind of silly and kind of pointless. Then again my wife is not uptight...although she still declines my requests to bring Heidi Klum home for a threesome, oh well she can't be perfect.

Is TALKING about a fantasy with a person you've NEVER MET, and wouldn't recognize if they walked up to you and kicked you in the shin, cheating? Hmmmmmm........

[Mike Tx]

Oh I wish someone female would call me and be naughty! I am all tingly all over!

[king310]

thing's that make you go hmmmmmmmmmm....
Let's see! Bill said oral sex was not cheating,and cigars are only as good as the humidor that they are kept in.......
I'm so confused......yes...no...........maybe.........ohh hhh the heck with it!

Only you and your god can be the judge of your morals. All that any of the rest of us can do is critise.

Doing anything "romantic" or "sexual" with another person without your partner knowing, is cheating.
